Fields
`kind`	`string` [Output Only] Type of the resource. Always `compute#instance` for instances.
`id`	`string (uint64 format)` [Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
`creationTimestamp`	`string` [Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
`name`	`string` The name of the resource, provided by the client when initially creating the resource. The resource name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression `[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?` which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
`description`	`string` An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource.
`tags`	`object` Tags to apply to this instance. Tags are used to identify valid sources or targets for network firewalls and are specified by the client during instance creation. The tags can be later modified by the setTags method. Each tag within the list must comply with RFC1035. Multiple tags can be specified via the 'tags.items' field.
`tags.items[]`	`string` An array of tags. Each tag must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035.
`tags.fingerprint`	`string (bytes format)` Specifies a fingerprint for this request, which is essentially a hash of the tags' contents and used for optimistic locking. The fingerprint is initially generated by Compute Engine and changes after every request to modify or update tags. You must always provide an up-to-date fingerprint hash in order to update or change tags. To see the latest fingerprint, make `get()` request to the instance. A base64-encoded string.
`machineType`	`string` Full or partial URL of the machine type resource to use for this instance, in the format: `zones/zone/machineTypes/machine-type`. This is provided by the client when the instance is created. For example, the following is a valid partial url to a predefined machine type: `zones/us-central1-f/machineTypes/n1-standard-1` To create a custom machine type, provide a URL to a machine type in the following format, where `CPUS` is 1 or an even number up to 32 (2, 4, 6, ... 24, etc), and `MEMORY` is the total memory for this instance. Memory must be a multiple of 256 MB and must be supplied in MB (e.g. 5 GB of memory is 5120 MB): `zones/zone/machineTypes/custom-CPUS-MEMORY` For example: `zones/us-central1-f/machineTypes/custom-4-5120` For a full list of restrictions, read the Specifications for custom machine types.
`status`	`enum` [Output Only] The status of the instance. One of the following values: `PROVISIONING`, `STAGING`, `RUNNING`, `STOPPING`, `SUSPENDING`, `SUSPENDED`, `REPAIRING`, and `TERMINATED`. For more information about the status of the instance, see Instance life cycle.
`statusMessage`	`string` [Output Only] An optional, human-readable explanation of the status.
`zone`	`string` [Output Only] URL of the zone where the instance resides. You must specify this field as part of the HTTP request URL. It is not settable as a field in the request body.
`canIpForward`	`boolean` Allows this instance to send and receive packets with non-matching destination or source IPs. This is required if you plan to use this instance to forward routes. For more information, see Enabling IP Forwarding.
`networkInterfaces[]`	`object` An array of network configurations for this instance. These specify how interfaces are configured to interact with other network services, such as connecting to the internet. Multiple interfaces are supported per instance.
`networkInterfaces[].kind`	`string` [Output Only] Type of the resource. Always `compute#networkInterface` for network interfaces.
`networkInterfaces[].network`	`string` URL of the VPC network resource for this instance. When creating an instance, if neither the network nor the subnetwork is specified, the default network `global/networks/default` is used. If the selected project doesn't have the default network, you must specify a network or subnet. If the network is not specified but the subnetwork is specified, the network is inferred. If you specify this property, you can specify the network as a full or partial URL. For example, the following are all valid URLs: `https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/project/global/networks/network` `projects/project/global/networks/network` `global/networks/default`
`networkInterfaces[].subnetwork`	`string` The URL of the Subnetwork resource for this instance. If the network resource is in legacy mode, do not specify this field. If the network is in auto subnet mode, specifying the subnetwork is optional. If the network is in custom subnet mode, specifying the subnetwork is required. If you specify this field, you can specify the subnetwork as a full or partial URL. For example, the following are all valid URLs: `https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/project/regions/region/subnetworks/subnetwork` `regions/region/subnetworks/subnetwork`
`networkInterfaces[].networkIP`	`string` An IPv4 internal IP address to assign to the instance for this network interface. If not specified by the user, an unused internal IP is assigned by the system.
`networkInterfaces[].ipv6Address`	`string` An IPv6 internal network address for this network interface. To use a static internal IP address, it must be unused and in the same region as the instance's zone. If not specified, Google Cloud will automatically assign an internal IPv6 address from the instance's subnetwork.
`networkInterfaces[].internalIpv6PrefixLength`	`integer` The prefix length of the primary internal IPv6 range.
`networkInterfaces[].name`	`string` [Output Only] The name of the network interface, which is generated by the server. For a VM, the network interface uses the `nicN` naming format. Where `N` is a value between `0` and `7`. The default interface value is `nic0`.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[]`	`object` An array of configurations for this interface. Currently, only one access config, `ONE_TO_ONE_NAT`, is supported. If there are no `accessConfigs` specified, then this instance will have no external internet access.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].kind`	`string` [Output Only] Type of the resource. Always `compute#accessConfig` for access configs.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].type`	`enum` The type of configuration. In `accessConfigs` (IPv4), the default and only option is `ONE_TO_ONE_NAT`. In `ipv6AccessConfigs`, the default and only option is `DIRECT_IPV6`.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].name`	`string` The name of this access configuration. In `accessConfigs` (IPv4), the default and recommended name is `External NAT`, but you can use any arbitrary string, such as `My external IP` or `Network Access`. In `ipv6AccessConfigs`, the recommend name is `External IPv6`.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].natIP`	`string` Applies to `accessConfigs` (IPv4) only. An external IP address associated with this instance. Specify an unused static external IP address available to the project or leave this field undefined to use an IP from a shared ephemeral IP address pool. If you specify a static external IP address, it must live in the same region as the zone of the instance.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].externalIpv6`	`string` Applies to `ipv6AccessConfigs` only. The first IPv6 address of the external IPv6 range associated with this instance, prefix length is stored in `externalIpv6PrefixLength` in `ipv6AccessConfig`. To use a static external IP address, it must be unused and in the same region as the instance's zone. If not specified, Google Cloud will automatically assign an external IPv6 address from the instance's subnetwork.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].externalIpv6PrefixLength`	`integer` Applies to `ipv6AccessConfigs` only. The prefix length of the external IPv6 range.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].setPublicPtr`	`boolean` Specifies whether a public DNS 'PTR' record should be created to map the external IP address of the instance to a DNS domain name. This field is not used in `ipv6AccessConfig`. A default PTR record will be created if the VM has external IPv6 range associated.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].publicPtrDomainName`	`string` The DNS domain name for the public PTR record. You can set this field only if the `setPublicPtr` field is enabled in `accessConfig`. If this field is unspecified in `ipv6AccessConfig`, a default PTR record will be created for first IP in associated external IPv6 range.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].networkTier`	`enum` This signifies the networking tier used for configuring this access configuration and can only take the following values: `PREMIUM`, `STANDARD`. If an AccessConfig is specified without a valid external IP address, an ephemeral IP will be created with this networkTier. If an AccessConfig with a valid external IP address is specified, it must match that of the networkTier associated with the Address resource owning that IP.
`networkInterfaces[].accessConfigs[].securityPolicy`	`string` [Output Only] The resource URL for the security policy associated with this access config.
`networkInterfaces[].ipv6AccessConfigs[]`	`object` An array of IPv6 access configurations for this interface. Currently, only one IPv6 access config, `DIRECT_IPV6`, is supported. If there is no `ipv6AccessConfig` specified, then this instance will have no external IPv6 Internet access.
